Location Description:

The capital of banh mi in AZ, banh mi being those Vietnamese submarine sandwiches crafted with crusty French bread and filled with any number of items including pork meatballs, barbecued pork slices, headcheese, ham, pté, cilantro, pickled daikon, and so on. These Southeast Asian sammies are dead cheap -- usually under $3 per -- and terribly tasty. Lee's is a big, gleaming place, with smoothies made of everything from durian to mango, and dark, rich Vietnamese-style coffee. While there, don't forget to try the bite-size Delimanjoo, decadent little pastries filled with hot cream.
